<h1>To create an index that uses a site map
</h1>

	<ol>
	<li>On the <b>File </b>menu, click <b>New</b>, and then click <b>Index</b>.
	<li><a href="idxkey1.htm">Add keywords</a>, and then save the index file.
	</li>
	</ol>

<h3>Notes</h3>
	<ul>
	<li>To work on a Web site this file does not need to be compiled. If you compile it (for use in a compiled help file), and want to use the site map format, open your project file, and then click <a onclick="doSection(cpo)" class=sidebar href="#nowhere"><b>Change Project Options</b></a>. Click the <b>Compiler</b> tab, and then clear the <b>Create a binary index</b> check box.
	<DIV CLASS="sidebartext" ID="cpo" STYLE="display: none; height: 72px; width: 300px"
	onclick="noSection(cpo)">
<img src="sb_cpo.gif" width=64 height=64 border=0 alt="">
	<P class=margin>			
	<b>Change Project Options</b>
	</P>
	<P class=margin2>			
	Specifies files, compiler, window, and other project settings.
	</P>
	</DIV>

	<li>If you are authoring an <a href="idxent3.htm">index for a Web site</a>, make sure you <A HREF="htaxin.htm">add the HTML Help ActiveX control</A> to the topic files you want the index to appear in. Specify <b>Index</b> as the command, and then specify the name and location for your index file.
	<li>An index compiled using the binary format will not work on a Web site. You can use a site map index for both a Web site and a compiled help file.
<li>If you compile a help file and <a href="prjcmp8.htm">set the compatibility to version 1.0</a>, a site map index will be created.
	</li>
